Val Pentemina
Community Cooperative

The Cooperative, a social enterprise, operates in Val Pentemina and surrounding areas to enhance local resources, traditions, and skills. It strives to improve quality of life, meet community needs, and foster population growth, both resident and non-resident.

Now you can support the project!

The Cooperative’s first initiative, the renovation of Ca’ di Gianchi to create a welcoming and refreshment point in Pentema, is now featured on the Progetti dal basso platform. With your support, we can expand our network and kickstart the revitalization process of the entire Val Pentemina.

Pentema and Val Pentemina


Pentema and the Val Pentemina blend tradition with new opportunities. With stone villages and lush forests, the area offers trekking, mountain biking, and nature trails. The renowned diffused nativity scene preserves local heritage, while restoration projects and initiatives foster new development.

The Cooperative’s Projects

The Val Pentemina Community Cooperative blends tradition with sustainable development. Projects like Ca’ di Gianchi restore historic spaces, creating economic and tourism opportunities. Through excursions, craft workshops, and local cuisine, the area fosters authentic and mindful tourism.

The Val Pentemina Community Cooperative

How and by whom is a Cooperative born? Why is it still relevant to work on the concept of community, and what added value can it bring to repopulation efforts? We have tried to answer these questions in the section dedicated to the history of our Cooperative.
